[quote=Anonymous]I formerly taught 4 year olds at Country Day. The children had a very rich learning environment— the emphasis was on enhancing their cognitive conceptual framework and developing the creative, problem-solving, and social skills which are foundational to all learning. Some children started reading as 4s or 5s and others did not, but they all could identify letters and sounds, developed a rich vocabulary, and a love of literature. I noted that “my kids” were routinely admitted to the top private schools in VA and DC. I stayed in touch with some families and am amazed by how successful the children became as they grew up! As for Montessori, classes are generally much larger, which is on manageable for some kids, but challenging for others, as I learned during my student teaching experiences. Best of luck! [/quote]
